Like with every IndieWorld Showcase, we can’t be sure which indie studios will announce their games, but there is one game everyone and their mother wants to see.
Hollow Knight: Silksong fans have been waiting a long time for Team Cherry to finally provide an update on the game.
It was first announced in 2019 and has made appearances at several live presentations throughout the past few years.
The sequel made a reappearance during the Nintendo Switch 2 showcase back in April (very briefly), along with confirmation of a 2025 release window, but there is still no specific release date.
We also know that the game will be released for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2.
